Set between Charlotte and the mountains around Asheville, Cleveland Country Club is a private club in Shelby, North Carolina with roots stretching back to 1927. It offers members and their guests a traditional club experience with a distinctly Southern character.
A recent $2 million renovation touched both the golf course and the club's social spaces. The bunkers were rebuilt and fitted with an improved drainage system, while indoor and outdoor dining areas and other club amenities were upgraded. The work included a redesigned dining room and bar as well as a large outdoor courtyard with fire pits and lounge seating, giving members a gathering place alongside the course.
